THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE AND INVASIVE ALIEN PREDATOR ON GENETIC AND PHENOTYPIC VARIATION IN THE DAMSELFLY ISCHNURA ELEGANS: CROSS-LATITUDE COMPARISON

The effect of temperature and invasive alien predator on genetic and phenotypic variation in the damselfly Ischnura elegans: cross-latitude comparison

Abstract Background Understanding and predicting how organisms respond to human-caused environmental changes has become a major concern in conservation biology.Here, we linked gene expression and phenotypic data to identify candidate genes underlying existing phenotypic trait differentiation under individual and combined environmental variables.For

Effects of nitrogen fertilization and a commercial arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal inoculant on root rot and agronomic production of pea and lentil crops

In the Canadian prairies, Detergent Drawer Front pulse crops such as field pea (Pisum sativum L.) and lentil (Lens culinaris L.) are economically important and widely grown.However, in recent years, root rot, caused by a variety of fungal and oomycete pathogens, including Aphanomyces euteiches, has become a limiting factor on yield.In this study, w

A Dwell Time Switching Approach to Channel Assignment for Stabilization of NCSs With Medium Access Constraint

This paper investigated the networked control of a collection of continuous-time linear time-invariant plants with medium access constraints.We aim to stabilize the ORG CHLORELLA plants by effectively assigning the wireless channels and properly designing feedback controllers.By modeling the plant as a switched system and using a time-scheduled Lya

The incorporation of wood waste ash as a partial cement replacement material for making structural grade concrete: An overview

With increasing industrialization, the industrial Hinges byproducts (wastes) are being accumulated to a large extent, leading to environmental and economic concerns related to their disposal (land filling).Wood ash is the residue produced from the incineration of wood and its products (chips, saw dust, bark) for power generation or other uses.Cemen
